indispensavel May 21, 2010 Fabricio D. Ventura (Brasilia, DF Brazil) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful Obras completas de Stravinsky, com regência do próprio são um verdadeiro deleite para várias horas de audição. São indispensáveis todos os ballets, sinfonias e outras obras mais dificeis de se achar a venda, dispensando-se o trabalho da procura, às vezes infrutífera. A impressão é de que está tudo com a assinatura do maestro. O box é compacto (ocupa o espaço de uns 4 ou 5 cds convencionais)e as obras estão distribuidas em 22 cds guardados em papel cartão. Um dos testamentos da música moderna e apíce da tradição musical ocidental. Não traz informações detalhadas sobre as obras, impulsionando o ouvinte neófito a buscá-las em outros meios. Relação custo-benefício excelente. Wow! A lot of music for the money. May 15, 2009 2 out of 3 found this review helpful I wanted to learn more about Stravinsky, and this was a great set to teach me.

22 discs, conducted by The Master himself (with one exception, and exceptional, disc conducted by friend and protege Robert Craft. It's 99.9% of the Stravinsky, including the lesser known - but equally fascinating - sacred works, chamber works, and orchestral works. Great stuff.
I purchased that 22 disc set for about $30 (that's not a typo) from a UK seller listed on amazon/us and received it in less than a week - many US sellers take longer to ship their product!
In fact, I'm listening to Stravinsky's Ragtime for 11 instruments as I write this - guaranteed to put a smile on your face!
Of course for this price, you lose a great deal of annotation. But really - 22 discs for $30?!? The sound quality is very good to excellent with the exception of the one historic disc. And the transparancy and clarity of Stravinsky's baton work is astonishing! You may still choose to supplement some of these performances with others - particularly true for the three major ballets - but really, one could live with these performances for the rest of one's life and be satisfied.
I know I will. Grab this set before the re-seller price jumps up. the best music buy on Earth March 8, 2009 Paul C. Weeks (Penticton, BC Canada) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful If you love Stravinsky or the Copland/Bartok/Shostakovich/etc variant of 20th century music, you must buy this for the sheer price performance. If not, buy it anyway and listen to the pieces in chronological order, progressing to the next piece only when the current piece makes sense to your ear. (Skip the [very early] Symphony in E-flat, and be prepared for a few clunkers.) Be ravished. Showing reviews 1-5 of 19
